My Best Friend's Driving Skills

I love sittin in the front seat of a car. I always have..

Okay it's obvious that this blog has been sparked by Barry getting his license and the fact that I've been living in and out of his car for the past week .. (or Ritesh's) but there something nice and soothing bout Barry's driving... we may have no idea where the heck we're going yet he's got this amazing grasp that the journey should be smooth. It comes from an appreciation of a car I guess.

I mean if you had a pet you'd take care of it to great lengths (to those of us who love our pets that is) so inevitably if you had a car you'd do the same..
warm it up for 5mins every morning.. drive smoothly..brake gently ..check out ur engine.. get your servicing done..ur battery constantly checked..etc etc.

I love being on a long road with the ac on ..and just driving. I guess it comes from when I was young. My family and I would always go for drives..really long ones..right down Sheikh Zayed..till Hatta.. on weekends we'd hit Baracuda..Fujeirah ..and the sort..and I loved my dads driving..since I was a kid.. (except for recently where Ive experienced more of his lets get from A to B FAST) ...but aside that I jst love being there. I feel like thats where I can think.. its where I can relax..I dont have to do anything as such..but I get to sit and be chauffeur driven.. (ok no offense ..) :) and its amazing..esp when you have someone who's got your fav songs on their playlist.

So here's to Barrys' driving. Amazing relaxing time.

Nowhere Fast

"I take a look around; it´s evident the scene has changed.And there are times when I feel improved, improved upon the past.Then there are times when I can´t seem to understand at alland yes it seems as though I´m goin nowhere...really fucking fast, nowhere fast."
- Nowhere Fast, Incubus

Ever felt like you have all the plans for your life set out.. your life's goals.. your ways to set about achieving them... or if not.. you have some kind of idea what you wanna be ...
yet you have this moment ..or time lapse of moments ..(plural) where you just cant seem to find the direction of your decisions?

What do you do then? Where do you go from them?

I've been avoiding bloggin cos I'm been at a lack of what to say. How do I put into words the fact that I feel brain dead..in every aspect. I know what I need to achieve, I know my targets yet I cant seem to get myself to sit down and focus on them...despite having alot of time on my hands.

It's depressing .. to some extent.. I just hope I get over it soon. It's not jst studies thats lacking.. its a lot more.

St. Patrick's Day

I honestly love this song like crazy, it can just mean soooo much.

Here, comes the cold.
Break out the winter clothes
And find a love to call your own.
You...enter you.
Your cheeks a shade of pink
And the rest of you in powder blue.

Who knows, what will be?
But I'll make you this guarantee...
No way November will see our goodbyes
When it comes to December it's obvious why
No one wants to be alone at Christmas time

In the dark,
on the phone,
You tell me the names of your brothers
And your favorite colors...
I'm learning you.
And when, it snows again
We'll take a walk outside
And search the sky,
like children do (I'll say to you..)

No way November will see our goodbyes
When it comes to December it's obvious why.
No one wants to be alone at Chrismas time.
Come January, we're frozen inside.
Making new resolutions a hundred times
February, won't you be my valentine?
And we'll both be safe till St. Patrick's day.

We should take a ride tonight around the town
And look around at all the beautiful houses.
Something in the way the blue light's on the black night
Can make you feel more
Everybody it seems to me,
Just wants to be,
just like you and me

No one wants to be alone at Christmas time
Come January we're frozen inside
Making new resolutions a hundred times.
February, won't you be my valentine?
And if our always is all that we gave
And we someday, take that away
I'll be alright...if it was just till St. Patrick's Day.
